    Changes in sales of so-called explosives precursors

    According to the Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU), from February 1, 2021, the sellers distributing so-called explosives precursors will be subject to additional obligations.

    What explosives precursors are

    These are the substances that may be used to illegally create explosives, which then can be utilized for purposes of criminal activity.


    Explosives precursors are, among others:

    • substances stipulated in annexes I and II of the Regulation and its amendments
    • mixtures containing these substances.
    Sell legally

    If you sell substances that may be used to make explosives, you are obliged to comply with the new regulations.

    Under the new regulations, you will be obliged, among others, to:

    • inform the buyer about the restrictions related to sharing, introducing, possessing, and using explosives precursors
    • identify the buyers
    • report suspicious transactions to appropriate authorities.
    What we will change

    In order to make it easier for you to comply with the provisions of the new Regulation, we will introduce the following changes to our Terms & Conditions:

    • we will change the rules of creating descriptions of offers with substances that may be used to make explosives
    • we will add a reminder about the new obligations.
    How to prepare an offer under the new regulations

    According to the Regulation and changes to be introduced in our Terms & Conditions, in the offer description you must:
